She came to record history. She's about to make some history of her own.
The exciting Young Adult adventure continues in this sequel to A Dark Discovery...
17-year-old Aerlys thought her last mission was tough. Now the galaxy's youngest Archivist has discovered a thriving lost human colony—and the monsters planning to harvest them!
With her shape-shifting artificial companion Shift, Aerlys must rally a primitive society to face an advanced alien threat. Armed with nothing but ancient knowledge and makeshift weapons, she'll have to become the hero she never expected to be. The hero that the Order of Archivists forbids her to be.
As the clock ticks down to a dark harvest, Aerlys grapples with impossible choices:
Break the major rule she has sworn to uphold?
Ally herself with a deeply divided society?
Risk everything to save people who don't even understand the stakes?
In a pulse-pounding race against time, Lyra will confront not just a technologically superior enemy, but the consequences of taking action against them. Because in saving humanity's lost children, she might just rewrite the future of the entire species even while losing her own life.
